Buffalo Nickels
1937-D 5C Three-Legged, FS-901, MS64+ PCGS. The bison's right front leg is effaced by die lapping on this ever-popular variety, while the fields and recesses of the Indian portrait show metal flowlines from die fatigue. The mintmark is clear, and this piece is remarkably sharp on the central devices where incomplete details usually are apparent. This high-end near-Gem will please the Buffalo nickel specialist who appreciates the difficulty of finding a 1937-D Three-Legged nickel with decent eye appeal.
